Your cosmetic dentist can use porcelain veneers to correct any number of aesthetic flaws in your smile. The treatment is fairly simple, straightforward and quick, and it is associated with numerous benefits.
Porcelain veneers are tooth-shaped shells that are bonded atop the biological teeth using a strong dental cement. The treatment process begins with an evaluation by a cosmetic dentist, who will inspect your teeth, take photos and x-rays and discuss your treatment goals with you.
Depending on the thickness of the veneer, the dentist may also prep your teeth for veneer placement by removing a thin layer of enamel to make room for the veneer. All of the data used in the design of your veneers is forwarded to the dental lab, where they will be created. When they are ready, which generally takes just a couple of weeks, you’ll return to the office to have them placed.
Here are some of the primary benefits of porcelain veneers.
